Price of scrap
big_wasa - 1/5/08 at 03:13 PM

Well it seems there are plenty of good donors about as know one wanted to buy mine see link

I took it to the scrap yard today and got £154.

And thats without the bits I riped out at the yard

And on top of that a nice traveller couldnt wait to buy the cat in the boot.

Just a shame, the bits should have lived on in a locost for years to come

shame as the shell looked very sound, I see just the odd cossie on the road now, that’s it, can't remember the last time I saw a standard sierra.

There are a few around this way.

The inner and outer sills had gone aswell as the floor.

very good nic other than that.

I saw a tidy looking Sierra today in town. Does anyone else get the urge to shout "donor vehicle" at them or is it just me that needs a visit from the men in white coats??

No, it's not just you. My family look at me in a weird way when I shout it when we are out in the tintop. Reminds me, there's a V reg Mk2 Escort round here...

I had seriously considered getting the car from you when you offered it at £200 as all the donor bits, just the distance stopped me and the cost/time to go and collect. Keep thinking there must be one local sometime soon.

There's quite a few running round North London, fighting for space with the Datsun Sunnys

This one wont even get used as bits. Its going direct to china in golf ball size bits

still I got the alternator and the switch gear along with the gear stick

wife wouldnt let me take it to bits with the pug on the drive, bike, Locost and three engines in the garage.
